In a world where change is constant and disruption is expected, staying ahead means more than just keeping up, it means transforming with purpose.
Our CEO, Mr Wee Tee Hsien, recently sat down with Money FM 89.3 to discuss the evolving business landscape, how we are supporting businesses in their transformation journey, and how they can stay relevant, resilient, and ready for the future.
“The key to transformation is mindset. With the right mindset, skill set, and tool set, we can help businesses thrive, unlocking the value of data through AI, automation, and smart workflows. We guide them from continuous improvement to true digital transformation.”
Wee Tee Hsien, CEO, FUJIFILM Business Innovation Singapore
Here are five key insights from his conversation:
1. Resilience starts with insight
The most resilient businesses don’t just bounce back, they look ahead. With global trade shifts and supply chain instability becoming the norm, companies need to anticipate change, not just respond to it. This is where AI and predictive analytics offer a way forward by turning data into foresight and giving businesses the edge to anticipate disruptions and act before disruption strikes and not just react to them.
2. Digital transformation is not a tech upgrade
Too often, businesses equate transformation with buying new software or equipment. In reality, successful transformation requires a holistic approach, aligning people, processes, and technology. That means building the right mindset within teams, equipping them with the skills to adapt, and ensuring technology serves real business goals rather than becoming an isolated investment. Transformation only succeeds when it's embedded into the way people work.
3. Let data drive decisions
One of the biggest shifts in recent years? The way data powers business decisions. Data isn’t just important, it’s now critical. Yet in many organizations, valuable information still sits in paper files or siloed legacy systems. By digitizing archives, applying AI-powered Optical Character Recognition (ORC), and integrating smart search and document intelligence, businesses can transform unstructured information into actionable insights. This shift allows leaders to make faster, more informed decisions, reduce inefficiencies, and create new opportunities for innovation.
4. Start small, scale smart
Whether you are a global enterprise or an SME, the key is to begin with focused and proven use cases that address real-world challenges such as automating manual workflows, streamlining customer onboarding, or digitizing records. You don’t need a massive overhaul to see progress. Starting small allows teams to validate ROI quickly, build confidence, and then expand these solutions across the organization. It’s about making meaningful changes that grow with you.
5. Transformation is a journey, not a one-time project
“We’ve come a long way from copiers and printers,” says Tee Hsien. Today, FUJIFILM Business Innovation Singapore supports customers with AI-powered automation, smart workplaces, and data intelligence. Our journey has spanned over six decades, and we will continue to evolve in step with customer needs and market shifts."
